If our chapter had such a graduation rate and such low performance, we'd be gone.

We hate the double standard - and their winning record hasn't been that good, either.
The way I see it is that athletic programs don't claim to place an emphasis on scholarship, but we, as GLOs do. We often profess to desire members with high GPAs and to encourage/facilitate good academic skills. Athletic programs only profess to try to win athletic games. They have a purpose and we have a purpose. I don't think the two can be compared.
